FCPA Enforcement Update: Individuals in the Line of Fire

December 6, 2010

David Krakoff, James Parkinson, and Lauren Randell presented the Thomson Reuters webconference, "FCPA Enforcement Update: Individuals in the Line of Fire," on December 6, 2010.

In the United States, enforcement officials have made their view very clear that the strongest deterrent effect is achieved by indicting and convicting the individuals they view as responsible for FCPA violations. Recent enforcement activity underscores this message.
